Ian Murphy a UK based Fine artist of 30 years, known for his passion for journeys to inspire his artworks and sketchbook drawings Born in Wigan, a town in Greater Manchester, England in 1963 Graduated from Sheffield (now Hallam) University in 1985 Does paintings, print making, drawing and sketch booking, his work mostly includes rough lines and layers Has artwork based on both the natural and the constructed elements of the environment These sketchbook drawings of Ian's are very intricate and I really like the use of the same techniques across all three of the drawings.
